I've purchased a plant new to me and new to the local nursery trade -- do
any of you know Isoplexis chalcanthus? It is supposedly from the Canary
Islands. So far, the foliage reminds me a bit of penstemon though the
leaves are a bit narrower and more pointed. The inflorescences are also
penstemon-like in structure, but the flowers are much less conspicuous and
are rust/orange colored. I've done an internet search for culture
information and find nothing. What can you tell me about it?
Thanks!
Nan
